Advent Calenders.

December 1st, 2009 Sarah Posted in Environment, Family 2 Comments »

We’ve all had them, we can see piles and piles of them in the shops. A thin card sleeve with this season’s popular film characters on and inside that a moulded plastic tray meant to hold tiny slivers of poor quality chocolate that all fall out and lurk at the bottom of the box.

Upgrades and toothpaste!

July 29th, 2009 Sarah Posted in Business News, Family No Comments »

Just upgraded to a new version of wordpress – hope it’s not broken anything. You’ll let me know if it has? Please do comment or email if you find something not working or missing.

Also just uploaded some new toothpaste, in fennel flavour to the shop. Fennel is just as refreshing as mint for those who don’t get on with mint and catering to those on both sides of the added fluoride argument – it comes in fluoride and fluoride free! However, both varieties are free from SLS, sweeteners, artificial flavours and enhancers and also free from preservatives.

As always, postage is free on all orders to any destination but bear in mind that UK deliveries will be sent via second class post and overseas will be send by surface mail.

July 3rd, 2009 Sarah Posted in All things Holistic, Family, Garden No Comments »

Comfrey has been used for centuries to treat bruises, sprains, surface wounds and even to help broken bones heal more quickly in humans and animals. In ages past farmers have fed comfrey to their livestock as a preventative and spring tonic after a long, cold, dark winter standing in the mire that is England.

June 19th, 2009 Sarah Posted in Family, Garden No Comments »

If a little windy.
We’ve been in and out of the house and garden – tidying up a bit indoors and weeding, planting and sowing outside.
